Swimming Pools
Strawberry Girls Lyrics

Pour up (drank), head shot (drank)
Drinking and taking shots.

Sit down (drank), stand up (drank)
Drinking while sitting and standing.

Pass out (drank), wake up (drank)
Drinking until you pass out then waking up to drink more.

Faded (drank), faded (drank)
Getting drunk and feeling faded.

Now I done grew up
Growing up and being exposed to drinking culture.

Round some people living their life in bottles
Being around people who drink heavily.

Granddaddy had the golden flask
Having a family member who drinks excessively.

Back stroke every day in Chicago
Swimming and drinking in Chicago.

Some people like the way it feels
Some people enjoy the feeling of being intoxicated.

Some people wanna kill their sorrows
Some people drink to forget their problems.

Some people wanna fit in with the popular
Some people drink to fit in with their peers.

That was my problem
Feeling pressure to drink.

I was in the dark room
Feeling lost and unsure in life.

Loud tunes, looking to make a vow soon
Listening to music and searching for a solution.

That I'm a get messed up, fillin' up my cup
Intending to drink heavily.

I see the crowd mood
Observing the behavior of others.

Changing by the minute and the record on repeat
Experiencing the changing mood of the crowd and the repetitive music.

Took a sip, then another sip, then somebody said to me:
Drinking and being encouraged to drink more.

Why you babysittin' only 2 or 3 shots?
Being criticized for not drinking enough.

I'm a show you how to turn it up a notch
Being shown how to drink more heavily.

First you get a swimming pool full of liquor, then you dive in it
Drinking heavily and partying in a pool of alcohol.

Pool full of liquor, then you dive in it
Continuing to drink and party in the pool of alcohol.

I wave a few bottles, then I watch em all flock
Being popular and attracting people with alcohol.

All the girls wanna play Baywatch
Attracting girls with alcohol.

I got a swimming pool full of liquor and they dive in it
Having a lot of alcohol and attracting people to drink it.

Pool full of liquor I'm a dive in it
Continuing to drink and party in the pool of alcohol.

Okay, now open your mind up and listen to me, Kendrick
Talking directly to Kendrick Lamar.

I'm in your conscience, if you do not hear me
Being present in Kendrick's thoughts.

Then you will be history, Kendrick
Encouraging Kendrick to listen and change his actions.

If I take another one down
Drinking more and potentially harming oneself.

I'm a drown in some poison abusin' my limit
Drinking until one is sick or worse, dying from alcohol poisoning.

I think that I'm feelin' the vibe
Feeling good and enjoying the moment.

I see the love in her eyes, I see the feelin'
Connecting with someone emotionally while under the influence.

The freedom is granted as soon as the damage of vodka arrive
Feeling free and uninhibited when drinking alcohol.

This how you capitalize
Exploiting the moment and taking advantage of it.

This is parental advice
Giving advice as if it were from a parental figure.

Then apparently, I'm over influenced by what you are doin'
Feeling like Kendrick's influence is affecting them too much.

Nigga why you babysittin' only 2 or 3 shots?
Being criticized for not drinking enough again.

Hop out. Do you, bang
Being confident and doing what one wants.
